About this document
Economic Role of Phosphate Solubilizing Bacteria by Dipti Priya is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses the economic importance of phosphate solubilizing bacteria. It notes that phosphorus is a major limiting nutrient for plant growth despite its abundance in soils, and that bacteria can solubilize inorganic phosphate compounds to make phosphorus available to plants. It describes how bacteria produce organic acids and enzymes that convert insoluble forms of phosphorus into soluble forms that plants can absorb. Common genera of bacteria that are effective phosphate solubilizers include P
